The Simpsons Season 34 Streams October 11 on Disney+; Good Burger 2 Set for Holiday Season

The Simpsons

Disney+ announced that season 34 of the hit animated series The Simpsons will launch October 11 on the streaming service. The new season of the Emmy® Award-, Annie Award- and Peabody Award-winning animated comedy takes fans back to Springfield for 22 more episodes of fun with the Simpson family. Season 34 also marks an exciting milestone – the 750th episode of The Simpsons titled "Homer's Adventures Through The Windshield Glass." The season features guest voice appearances from Fred Armisen, Anna Faris, Will Forte, Simu Liu, Lizzo, Rob Lowe, Melissa McCarthy, Jade Novah, Aubrey Plaza, John Roberts, and more.

The longest-running primetime scripted show in television history, The Simpsons exploded into popular culture in 1989 and has remained one of the most groundbreaking and innovative entertainment franchises, recognizable throughout the world. Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie are instantly identifiable television icons. In the premiere, Homer is desperate to prove he's not dumb and sets out to solve the case of the tortoise missing from the zoo. Season 34 also features a double dose of "Treehouse of Horror" episodes, marking the first time in the show’s history there have been two "Treehouse" -branded episodes in a single Halloween.


Good Burger 2

Paramount+ revealed the official key art and premiere date for Good Burger 2 (yesterday on National Cheeseburger Day), the new original movie sequel to the iconic '90s feature film based on the sketch from the Nickelodeon comedy series All That. The highly anticipated film sequel follows Dexter Reed (Kenan Thompson) and original cashier Ed (Kel Mitchell), as they reunite in the present day at fast-food restaurant Good Burger with a hilarious new group of employees. Produced by Nickelodeon Studios, Good Burger 2 is set to premiere in time for the holidays on Wednesday, November 22, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S and Canada, on Thursday, November 23, 2023 on Paramount+ in the UK and Australia. The film will also be available in additional Paramount+ international markets shortly after.

In addition to Thompson and Mitchell, Good Burger 2 stars Lil Rel Howery (Get Out) as Cecil McNevin, Jillian Bell (Murder Mystery 2) as Katt Boswell, Kamaia Fairburn (Blockbuster) as Mia, Alex R. Hibbert (The Chi) as Ed2, Fabrizio Guido (Perry Mason) as Mr. Jensen, Elizabeth Hinkler (The Good Doctor) and Emily Hinkler (The Good Doctor) as Cindy and Mindy and Anabel Graetz (Free Guy) as Ruth. The film will also feature surprise celebrity cameos as well as original Good Burger cast members who are reprising their roles: Josh Server as Fizz, Lori Beth Denberg as Connie Muldoon and Carmen Electra as Roxanne.

The original '90s sketch first aired on All That in 1994 and was centered around fast-food restaurant Good Burger and its clueless cashier Ed, played by Mitchell from Seasons 1-5. The feature film Good Burger was released worldwide on July 25, 1997, by Paramount Pictures. Later, in the All That revival series in 2019, Mitchell returned to guest star as Ed, who has been working at Good Burger for 20 years as manager of the trainees.
